The Intersection of Voice and POV

The easiest way to think about POV is as a lens that you hand the reader and say, here, you will now be viewing the world through this slightly warped piece of glass.

And on that note . . . I just read a post on a Substack blog by Jennifer Lauck, a local (Portland Oregon) writing teacher/author, that said:

If editors say, "I want a story with voice," they usually are asking for a vast variety of words, turns of phrases, made-up words, and syntactical variations, all of which not only develop the narrator but also create a medley of different sounds for the ear." --Nina Schuyler

Brilliant, don't you think?
